Boy, I will be your friend forever
[Terrence Howard:]
Well, gone and leave me that heart

[Bridge:]
[Mary J. Blige:]
If love is the crime, I'm down for it
[Terrence Howard:]
If love is the crime

Let love be the judge
I receive the verdict
Now, take me baby
[Terrence Howard:]
Take me
[Mary J. Blige:]
In your arms
[Terrence Howard:]

Hold me tight
Don't put up a fight
